A vulnerability has been identified in SIMATIC CP 1543-1 (All versions < V2.0.28), SIPLUS NET CP 1543-1 (All versions < V2.0.28). Under special conditions it was possible to write SNMP variables on port 161/udp which should be read-only and should only be configured with TIA-Portal. A write to these variables could reduce the availability or cause a denial-of-service.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This affects Siemens SIMATIC CP 1543-1 and SIPLUS NET CP 1543-1 industrial network modules before V2.0.28. Under special conditions, low-privileged access could write SNMP values that should be read-only, potentially disrupting availability or causing denial of service. Organizations using affected Siemens S7-1500 communication processors are exposed if CP 1543-1 or SIPLUS NET CP 1543-1 firmware is below V2.0.28 and SNMP is reachable from untrusted or weakly controlled networks. Treat this as high priority for OT environments because it affects industrial communication modules and appears in CISA KEV. Focus first on internet-reachable, partner-reachable, or broadly reachable SNMP services. Mitigation focus: Upgrade affected Siemens CP 1543-1 devices to V2.0.28 or later.; Confirm SIPLUS NET CP 1543-1 devices follow the same version threshold.; Restrict SNMP UDP/161 to trusted management networks only..
